Oh, VS is not “little”, it’s one of the bloatiest pieces of software on earth.

Also, Forms? How dare you. :p

It’s not so bad in the newer version. The switch x64 and put of process architecture helps a decent amount.

I always have a pretty beefy dev machine though.

Once upon a time, a content management system for microsoft.com was a plug in for VS. And also a plug in for Word. And these two plugins had different feature sets, so you had to use both to manage content on microsoft.com. Don’t ask how I know.

Can confirm. Have had to download the full VS 2022 Pro over a shit wifi connection at work 55GB. It took half a day then failed. Re run the command to recheck every package and get the missing / broken ones and it is a single threaded app so it takes forever computing file hashes on one thread.

In the end it took around 7.5 hours.

My boss: add this field to this old form.

Me: open the form, add my field. Now VS crashes. I have to open the form code in a different editor and delete all the code VS added to the form when I opened it in the form editor.

Oh, so it hasn’t changed since I used VS6 back in the early 2000s (bought at the auto parts market from Russians on an almost transparent CD)

I doubt the number of C# developers would drop even 1% due to Unity fucking itself.
